Chapter 297: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The Bridge' Part 100
Kayn and Garvin talked a bit more before the duo started preparing their respective side for the continuation of the war.
The reason why they leisurely converse with each other was that they have the same thought of luring those people out from either side.
Contrary to Kayn who already possesses some information about Chief Dennis' supposed bodyguards, Garvin on the other hand believed they are a third party that wants to take advantage of this war to pick off both the Assembly of Freedom and the Green Horn City.
In the end, their actions were proven futile since nobody from both sides acted differently during their entire conversation. As such, it is time for the cease-fire to end.
"Prepare the catapults!" Kayn plans to pull the same stunt as yesterday. "And bring out the ballista to the walls as quickly as possible,"
"They're already on their way here," Jericho reported.
Kayn gave a nod.
"Prepare the catapults and load the oil barrels," Kayn soon instructed.
"Oil? They'll take advantage of that!" Wesley objected.
"Are you the commander or me?" Kayn felt irritated.
"You are," Wesley lowers his head.
"Then just trust me. I know what I am doing," Kayn didn't bother to continue speaking anymore as he return his attention to the catapults. Raising his right arm, he finally sent the order. "Fire!"
Whoosh!
Numerous oil barrels soared through the air, heading toward the direction of the Freedom Fang Brigade.
Quickly noticing that those barrels contains oil, Garvin shook his head.
"Mages!" Garvin called out. "Shoot down those oil barrels!"
Whoosh!
Dozens of fireballs shoot out to counter the incoming oil barrels.
Boom!
Bang!
A series of explosions sounded as all the oil barrels started exploding one after the other.
The instant the barrels exploded, they would immediately splash out all the oil content into the water on the moat below. As a result, the surrounding area between the walls of the Dream Village and the Freedom Fang Brigade started raining with oil.
Seeing the scene of oil raining on the moat, Garvin instantly understood Kayn's strategy.
"Fire the flaming arrows to the moat!" Kayn quickly followed up.
Whoosh!
Amidst the oil rain, a barrage of flaming arrows relentlessly pelted the moat.
As soon as the arrows touched the moat, a spark of flaming inferno instantly erupted, enveloping the entirety of the moat with burning hot flames.
With the burning inferno before their wall, Garvin understood that it is now going to be impossible for them to cross the moat if they don't extinguish the fire.
Garvin could not help himself from looking at Kayn. Just now, he thought the latter was simply going to execute the same strategy they pulled off yesterday, drenching the wall with oil and lighting it on fire. That was why he immediately ordered the Mages to retaliate and block them. If he had known beforehand, he would have let his deputies handle the oil barrels and prevent them from doing both.
"You truly never fail to amaze me," Garvin expresses his admiration to Kayn.
"I've never been someone who uses the same strategy again, especially against the same opponent," Kayn glimpses at Wesley before muttering. "Do you understand?"
"Yes..." Wesley muttered in a low voice.
"Did the traitor want to prove himself useful to you just now?"
"I think you're misunderstanding something," Kayn corrected. "I made Wesley betray the Assembly of Freedom as I left him with no other choice,"
"He could have just chosen to die,"
"I'll see about that once I put you in the same situation as him later," Kayn nodded at Wesley. "You can activate it now,"
"Are you sure?"
"Don't make me repeat myself again,"
"Okay!" Wesley nodded in delight.
In the next moment, a commotion suddenly began inside the formation of the Freedom Fang Brigade.
Garvin remembered something, prompting his attention to turn away from the Dream Village and to his men. He turns his head to look at Kayn again before muttering. "Don't you think this is too early for you to use?"
"Have I done something too early?" Kayn smiles.
"Too bad, we've already prepared ourselves for this,"
Just like what Silas' had mentioned just now, the formation of their brigade was already arranged specifically to deal against the people who had secretly fallen victim to Wesley's charm in the past.
While that was going on, the ballista finally arrived on top of Dream Village's wall.
"Prepare the ballista!" Kayn exclaimed.
Hearing Kayn's loud shout, Garvin immediately ordered. "Block the arrows!"
Whoosh!
The Ballista shoots out dozens of arrows.
Whoosh!
Before the arrows could reach the Freedom Fang Brigade, earth walls were immediately erected in front of their wall to block the arrows.
Bang!
Boom!
The arrows were easily blocked.
"Fire the next round!"
Whoosh!
This time, the arrows didn't go for the earth walls, but instead to the actual wall of the Freedom Fang Brigade.
Bang!
The arrows pierced the walls deeply, firmly embedding themselves within.
"What you're doing is useless!" Ekin voiced out his insult.
"You never learn," Kayn muttered under his breath.
Unbeknownst to the Freedom Fang Brigade, with the majority of their vision now hindered by the extension of the earth walls, nobody noticed that wires are actually attached to the second round of arrows.
"Send in the dynamites!" Kayn
Soldiers started hooking dynamites to the wires and right after pushing them to the end of the wires.
Noticing something coming to them, one of the soldiers quickly reported to Garvin. "Sir Garvin, they're sending a black object to our walls,"
"How?"
"I think they've attached wires to the second volley,"
"Wires?" Garvin quickly approached the window of their wall. To his shock, he immediately saw countless dynamite piling on top of each other in front of their wall.
"Everyone, get away from the walls!" Garvin immediately warned everyone as he jumped far away from the wall.
Whoosh!
Dozens of piercing sounds of arrows traveling toward their wall soon echoed in front.
